Let’s be honest—life is messy. And optimism? It’s not always easy.

But what if optimism wasn’t about pretending things are fine…
What if it was about choosing to believe in something better—even when things are not okay?

In this episode of Dare to Care with Michelle, I’m getting real with you about what optimism really is (and what it’s not).

We’re talking:

  • Why “just think positive” doesn’t work 🙄

  • How optimism is actually a form of power

  • And the difference between probability (math) and possibility (🔥 your magic)

I’m sharing childhood reflections, my favorite quote (yes, I said it), and the powerful story of how Mignon François turned $5 and faith into a million-dollar cupcake biz—because that’s what belief can do.

Optimism is choosing possibility over probability.
And you, my friend, are allowed to believe again.
